Your teeth need this extra protection

A tooth paste should do more thar keep your teeth white and attrac tive, it should also keep the gums firm and free from pyorrhoea, it should keep the whole mouth germ -free and healthy.

This is particularly necessary in tropical climates where germs of discase increase so rapidly.

Pebeco, the tooth paste with the wonderfully refreshing taste, can give you this necessary protection.
